Fish.
Fish can be found all over the world. You may like to eat fish, admire them at zoo’s, do some fishing, or even keep them for pets. Fish can be plant eaters, meat eaters or both meat and plant eaters.Many fish can taste without opening their mouth. Fish can come in different shapes and sizes the smallest is paedocypris and the biggest is a whale shark. Sea horse’s don’t have teeth so they have to suck in their food holes. They need very small food because they are very small. The male seahorse gives birth to the babies not the female. There are over 30000 known species of fish. The smallest shark is the lantern shark. At night fish don’t sleep, fish can rest though. At night they hunt for food.Fish don’t go up for air instead they have gill’s so they breve under water. If you touch a fish’s gills it may die. Many fish can see in the dark better than cats. Tuna can swim at speeds of up to 70 kph (43 mph). The smallest whale is the dwarf sperm whale. My favourite fish is the lantern fish. There are 4 ocean zones, the sunlight zone, twilight zone, midnight zone and the abyssal zone. The first fish ever discovered was the pikaia. Shark’s do not have bones.Here are the types of sharks I know. Hammerhead shark, basking shark, sawshark, Thresher Shark, carpet shark, nurse shark, goblin shark, blue shark, bull shark, great white shark, mako shark, tiger shark, mega mouth shark, greenland shark, whale shark, pygmy shark, dwarf shark, and the sand shark.There are 4.3 million squid in the world. And 44 species of dolphins. Baby fish are called fry. A fish surrounds itself by it’s snot to protect itself? Some flatfish camouflage to hide themself on the ocean floor. Goldfish can’t close their eyes as they have no eyelids. One puffer fish contains enough poison to kill 30 people. Starfish are able to grow a new arm if you cut one off. My favorite fact is that when Anglerfish mate, they melt into each other and share their bodies forever.I would not mess with the box jellyfish, they are the deadliest jellyfish in history and The most dangerous fish to eat is fugu. If I was you I would not race a sailfish they may not be the fastest animal on earth, but they are the fastest fish in the world. and The last fact is The first fish to walk on land was the tiktaalik.
